    Well, its obvious i'm not a calm hand like BigA, but these kinda crap gets me worked up. Sorry to those who find my sharp comments offensive. They are NOT aimed at you guys. Here's more:

    I mentioned in another thread that as consumers, we reap what we sowed. Support crappy shit just based on the dev's glories on other old platforms is just incentive to the devs (in this case Team17) to give you more shit to squeeze money out of us. Think about it people!

    I don't care what glorious reputation Team17 had on other platforms (I love worms amargeddon on the PSP) but their performance on the iDevice platform is just abysmal.

    Just like BigA mentioned, other smaller devs had online multiplayer FOR MONTHS NOW. Star Hogs, Kil.a.ton, you name it. Did Team17 lost all their bright developers that they had to play catch-up on their own game/turf/genre? They had been doing worms multiplayer for years now, damnit...

    It's just shady and greedy, there's no other ways to explain it. If they really wanted to make good on that worms multiplayer promise, they could have got it done last month for crying out loud.

    PEACE.

    I blame the iPhone more than Team17, it's total crap for a game like Worms. If I'm not playing at 1680x1050 with 50+ weapons and a cursor to click with, it's just not the same.

    DS version was worse though.

    Worms Armageddon ran great at 640x480. Granted that is still bigger than the iPhone's 480x320, but not by much. Team17 could have done a lot better.

    Maybe so, but I'm sure there are other limitations, especially when it comes to taking it online. Personally I couldn't play at 640x480 either, I'm so used to playing at super high resolutions by now... they really take the game to another level.

    All i can say to that is, give games like BigA's favorite :D Star Hogs a run. That is how you do a proper trajectory game with both great single and full online multiplayer.

    I blame Team17 totally. Other devs had shown you can do a great trajectory game on the iDevice platform.

    So...is this game coming out today?

    I'm sure that I will buy this, I have liked pretty much every Worm game I have played, even the Worms games that seem to be unpopular.

    I am fearing a minigames collection. But I have no reason to think this.

    could we PLEASE stop posting threads before a game is even available? i'm sick of this already. if you're making a thread for an app, please include the link to the purchase. don't make one and then say "oh, well it's coming out...sometime." i don't even care if it's ten minutes from now. just wait and then make the appropriate thread. as it stands, this topic title is a complete lie.

    I am a little worried if a $5 Worms game had only 50 challenges and a quick play option. This probably will be a minigame collection of five 30 second games.

    I second that.
    It's really getting old.

    A few developers have posted here with a cool looking game... as I shortly come to the realization that it has either JUST been submitted, or is still in development.

    And another thing - Has it been said that Worms Express isn't just a lite version of Worms for 99c?

    i mean if it's still in development and it's posted in the appropriate forum(UPCOMING games) that doesn't bother me so much. the dev just wants to get their app's name out there and drum up some hype to guarantee some sales. but this particular forum is reserved for games that are actually out. this thread was made over eight hours ago and we still have nothing.

    I do not blame eggzbacon for this at all. The tweet clearly stated that the game was avalible in the app store. Why did team17 tweet this if it is not out?
